Introduction: Arduino Infrared Thermometer Gun MDF Case

About: just share what i have to make life funny see my page https://www.youtube.com/c/engineer2you

This project is for making infrared thermometer with Arduino, the circuit is put in MDF case look-liked a medical infrared thermometer on market.

The sensor infrared thermometer GY-906 is used to measure object temperature without contact, it can measure from -70 to 380 degree C in very quick time. Please note that, this sensor can measure in short distance, about 2cm.

So you can use this for personal using, or gift to your child, also use it for learn Arduino in funny way

It tooks me about 2 weeks of work to complete from circuit, MDF case design, and document. I hope it is meaning for some one

Step 1: Design the Case MDF

I use MDF wood 3mm to make the case. Firstly, the case is design in Corel Draw (see attachment file for the file)

Then, using laser cnc laser machine to cut and engrave letter on it. In this step, you need skill of using cnc laser machine.

Step 2: Make Circuit

Make a circuit as picture. For sure, install it in bread board, download the code to see if it can works or not

Step 3: Put Every in the Case and Finish Your Own Product

Holaaaa! this is made by YOU!

This is not a toy! You can use it for personal using, or measuring another object temperature very quickly

Step 4: Watch the Video

For easy understand, you can see full instruction in the video

Conclusion: please share your opinion about this project, i hope to here your voice. I'm very glad if you like it. OR, you have any suggestion, please leave a comment. Thankss
